Abstract

Retinopathy of prematurity is a potentially blinding disease caused by abnormal development of retinal blood vessels in premature infants. With proper management, the incidence of poor visual outcome has been markedly decreased. Although vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors for the treatment of ROP may allow to continue vascularization of the retina, laser photocoagulation is the current gold standart treatment for severe ROP. Classification and screening protocols are frequently updated for reaching the most appropriate management. This article mentions about current classification, screening, examination methods, and treatment in retinopathy of prematurity.

Özet

Prematüre retinopatisi (PR) erken doğan bebeklerde retinal damarların anormal gelişmesine ve potansiyel olarak körlüğe yol açabilen bir hastalıktır. Doğru yönetim ile kötü görsel sonuç görülme oranı belirgin şekilde azaltılmıştır. PR tedavisi için kullanılan vasküler endotelyal büyüme faktörü inhibitörleri retinanın vaskülarizasyonuna olanak sağlamasına rağmen, günümüzde şiddetli PR için altın standart tedavi yöntemi lazer fotokoagülasyondur. Sınıflandırma ve tarama protokolleri en uygun yönetim modeline ulaşmak için sık sık güncellenmektedir. Bu yazıda güncel prematüre retinopatisinde güncel sınıflandırma, tarama, muayene yöntemleri ve tedaviden bahsedilecektir.
